However, Spire said that it expected full-year 2014 revenue to be in the range of US$9.8 million to US$10.4 million, compared to US$14.6 million in 2013. 

The company expected an operating loss of between US$7.7 million and US$7.8 million in 2014, with a net loss in the range of US$5.8 million to US$5.9 million, compared to a net loss of $8.5 million in 2013.
